Really, I was just wondering if it could be done without too many problems. I like the diesels for many reasons - longevity being one. However, if it is going to be too difficult or too expensive to do, I will pass.
Is the Cummins swap any different - easier?

I think the cummins is fairly straight forward, but still a lot of modifications. Here's a link to one being put in a 4X4 burb:

I had thought about putting a Duramax in my 4 Door CrewCab, but I had already built a 1/2 Ton frame and didn't want to start all over again.
